In the previous article (\cite{S}), we proved that slope stability of a holomorphic vector bundle $E$ over a polarized manifold $(X,L)$ implies Chow stability of $(\mathbb{P}E^*,\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}E^*}(1)\otimes \pi^* L^k)$ for $k \gg…
Let $P(d)$ be the probability that a random 0/1-matrix of size $d \times d$ is singular, and let $E(d)$ be the expected number of 0/1-vectors in the linear subspace spanned by d-1 random independent 0/1-vectors. (So $E(d)$ is the expected…
We extend the notion of absolute subsets of Betti moduli spaces of smooth algebraic varieties to the case of normal varieties. As a consequence we prove that twisted cohomology jump loci in rank one over a normal variety are a finite union…
This paper follows a previous one in which were introduced deformation invariants $\chi^d_r$, $d \in H_2 (X ; \Z)$, $r \in \N$, of closed real symplectic four-manifolds $(X, \omega, c_X)$, invariants which produced lower bounds in real…
We study Kahler manifolds-with-boundary, not necessarily compact, with weakly pseudoconvex boundary, each component of which is compact. If such a manifold $K$ has $l\ge2$ boundary components (possibly $l=\infty$), then it has first betti…
If $L$ is a flag triangulation of $S^{n-1}$, then the Davis complex $\Sigma_L$ for the associated right-angled Coxeter group $W_L$ is a contractible $n$-manifold. A special case of a conjecture of Singer predicts that the $L^2$-homology of…
We prove a version of the tamely ramified geometric Langlands correspondence in positive characteristic for $GL_n(k)$. Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p> n$. Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve over $k$ with…
In this article we determine exactly which line bundles on elliptic ruled surface X are normally presented. In particular we see that numerical classes of normally presented divisors form a convex set. (recall that Num(X) is generated by…
Let V be a smooth equidimensional quasi-affine variety of dimension r over the complex numbers $C$ and let $F$ be a $(p\times s)$-matrix of coordinate functions of $C[V]$, where $s\ge p+r$. The pair $(V,F)$ determines a vector bundle $E$ of…
By ECS manifolds one means pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of dimensions $\,n\ge4\,$ which have parallel Weyl tensor, but not for one of the two obvious reasons: conformal flatness or local symmetry. As shown by Roter [10, 2], they exist for…
We address the general problem of estimating the probability that a real symmetric tensor is close to rank-one tensors. Using Weyl's tube formula, we turn this question into a differential geometric one involving the study of metric…
Let $X$ be a projective manifold, and $D$ be a normal crossing divisor of $X$. By Jost-Zuo's theorem that if we have a reductive representation $\rho$ of the fundamental group $\pi_{1}(X^{*})$ with unipotent local monodromy, where…
Take a holomorphic Lie algebroid $(V,\phi)$ over a rationally connected smooth complex projective variety $X$. We show that, under certain conditions, a vector bundle $E$ over $X$ admits a $(V,\phi)$-connection if and only if $E$ is…
Given an $n$-dimensional compact complex Hermitian manifold $X$, a $C^\infty$ complex line bundle $L$ equipped with a connection $D$ whose $(0,\,1)$-component $D''$ squares to zero and a real-valued function $\eta$ on $X$, we prove that the…
Manin's conjecture predicts an asymptotic formula for the number of rational points of bounded height on a smooth projective variety in terms of its global geometric invariants. The strongest form of the conjecture implies certain…
Statistical analysis of a graph often starts with embedding, the process of representing its nodes as points in space. How to choose the embedding dimension is a nuanced decision in practice, but in theory a notion of true dimension is…
It is conjectured since long that for any convex body $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ there exists a point in the interior of $K$ which belongs to at least $2n$ normals from different points on the boundary of $K$. The conjecture is known to be…
We establish a connection between properties of partially symmetric tensors (i.e. tensors associated to linear systems of quadric hypersurfaces) and the geometry of some related loci, generalization of the Weddle loci introduced in…
Let W be the germ of a smooth complex surface around an exceptional curve and let E be a rank 2 vector bundle on W. We study the cohomological properties of a finite sequence $E_i, 1 \leq i \leq t$ of rank 2 vector bundles canonically…
We show that a proper algebraic n-dimensional scheme Y admits nontrivial vector bundles of rank n, even if Y is non-projective, provided that there is a modification containing a projective Cartier divisor that intersects the exceptional…
